I won't even bother to try and refute this hogwash, we've all learned more about this case than Mr. Dow, apparently, or he's an evil hack with an axe to grind.

What “Stand You Ground Law”?

Zimmerman was on his back, being beaten and screaming for help. He didn’t have the option of retreating.

Lefties have lost their collective minds.

If they find Zimmerman guilty then we white people will riot and burn and the streets will run red with blood.

Right white people?

Hello?

Anyone there?

“and every time he called he was suspicious about someone black”

I wonder if the author has a source for that claim. I’d bet the farm its a completely false statement.

Author is an anti-Capital Punishment activist from Texas.

Just further proof that these sort of people are anti-defense, pro-felon, and hypocritical "Don't Take The Law Into Your Own Hands, Leave It To Our Police" right up until the moment a cop actually shows up and then they become anti-law enforcement.

Mental disorder, I say. Either that, or he worships the Dark Goddess Of Chaos.

“Zimmerman could have sat in his car, with no danger whatsoever to his own safety”

This is sort of like blaming a rape victim for going out at night.

There is nothing illegal about getting out of the car...or even following Martin. The only thing that matters (maybe) is who started the fight. I have seen ‘legal experts’ on tv place the burden of proof concerning this on Zimmerman...the ole ‘innocent until Sharpton says you’re not’ axiom.

Teachable moment? Okay...I teach my kids to:
1. run away,
2. hide,
3. call the police, or call for help

if they are being followed by someone creepy.

I sure as heck don’t teach them to go front up to the guy, and then get in a physical altercation with an older unknown person for any reason whatsoever. Because they may just, you know, end up dead or mutilated.

Regardless of the outcome does anyone get the feeling that this case is some sort of lever.

If they would have got a conviction they, in their minds, would be justified to riot because a horrific injustice was done.

Zimmerman could have sat in his car, with no danger whatsoever to his own safety, and awaited the arrival of police—in fact, he was told by the 911 dispatcher to do just that. But he didn’t.

WRONG.

Didn't happen that way.

But as I have been saying, that is the narrative that is being pushed to whip the masses into a blood frenzy by selling the false scenario of "the cops told GZ to stay in his truck."

And a LOT of people are buying into it.

Some of the leftie media is making a big deal about witnesses “changing their stories”.

Yeah, they suddenly changed their stories AFTER the media circus Zimmerman lynching!

The left has given up on lynching Zimmerman, and has fallen back on their usual gun-control propaganda, much like a rat looking for kernels of corn in a cow turd.

Did the author ever have any training regarding logical thought? If so, he needs a refund.

So many logical points ignored.

Why didn't Trayvon Martin call 911?

The fault for the homicide here lies more fully with the NRA-backed Stand Your Ground law that will probably prevent this case from ever reaching a jury.

Why don't these kooks say, instead, that the fault lies with "Neighborhood Watch" which is the reason the local police acknowledged that Zimmerman was authorized to act when suspicious strangers entered the neighborhood?

Finally, with or without "Stand Your Ground", Zimmerman was going to shoot the person on top of him to save his own life.

I love the way these whining, lying liberal sleexebags will only publish their opinions in a lefty rag where they are far less likely to encounter someone willing to refute their “facts” (assumptions and opinions) one by one.

Even Dershowitz says that the SYG law is irrelevant to the case. This author is out of his depth.

100% pure bull squeeze!

It will, however, serve to further inflame the Flying Monkey Brigade. Much of what we're reading is intended to do that.
